Back to the Middle of Nowhere

Weekends, in my tiny metropolitan world, are known as "Epic Bacon Weekends." They aren't really unlike a regular weekend, I just like to dub things with names. During said weekends, I recruit friends and cohorts to embark on mini adventures, and of course eat lots of bacon for brekkie. This weekend, I found myself (and Toma...) wandering back to the Farm from last weekend. It is dreadfully pretty out there when the sun is shinning, and I am so pleased we were able to get a few pictures before heading back for lunch.

The dress I am wearing is a great 1930s black wool staple piece I got from Solanah in a trade. I love all the great detail work on the bodice. Of course I am wearing my Bordello's... I don't generally leave home without them.

After we left the Farm we headed into Oregon City for lunch. While in this tiny blip of a town, we found this magnificent structure... A glorious lift to the top of the city, in a very retro elevator. We stopped in the hallway to nab some pictures, then headed to the upper most deck to catch a view of the city.

Once we descended, we headed home to put an end to a lovely weekend. We said goodnight to Team Jessup, and worked our way back into monday. I can't wait for next weekend, I wonder where I will end up next...

<3 as an Oregon City girl I was so shocked to see my old hometown in your wonderful blog! Fun little note, those stairs are haunted by a very nice man in his mid 30s dressed in victorian wear. He'll always give you a nod and a smile if you're lucky to catch him!

I love your dress! The photos of the beautiful towns throughout Oregon are a definite must see when we eventually make it down there!

yeah it was fun being that red color so much. It was my favorite hair color. Unfortunately they don't sell that color anymore so I decided to go back to a near natural color for my hair. I look forward to seeing you red!
